Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A browser-based tool that detects words baked into an image, lets you replace them, and reconstructs the surrounding pixels to match the original.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-04 issue.

Field notes

The workflow begins with OCR-style detection that draws a box around each word in an uploaded image, then lets the user correct the detected text before replacement. The page distinguishes pixel reconstruction from placing a new layer over the old words and supports multiple edits within a single image. It lists an 8MB limit for PNG, JPG, and WebP files, identifies numbers and dates as harder cases, and says files are deleted after 48 hours.
